System and method for communicating health data in a healthcare environment

摘要

A system for communicating health data in a healthcare environment (1) comprises a communication network (4) for communicating health data in the healthcare environment (1), a reporting device (2) for transferring health data via the communication network (4), and a consuming device (3) for receiving health data from the reporting device (2) via a communication channel (41) of the communication network (4). Herein, the consuming device (3), for receiving health data from the reporting device (2), is constituted to send a subscription request message (A1) containing a subscription request to the reporting device (2), and that the reporting device (2) is constituted, upon receiving the subscription request message (A1), to validate the subscription request and to establish the communication channel (41) to transfer health data to the consuming device (3). In this way a system is provided which may allow for an easy connection of a consuming device to a network with the possibility to reduce the data load and to improve a backup handling
